"Default" is the term used when a borrower is unable to meet their financial obligations. Since U.S. Treasury bills are backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. government, the risk of default is considered very low, making them a safe investment. The other options (defeat, desertion, demarcation) are not applicable to the concept of risk in investments.
